Hi,

We want use ZCHANNEL as descriptive characteristic in consumption group for consumption to happen. We need to define this charaterstic along with 9AMATNR & 9ALOCNO in consumption group and assign repective filed catalogs.

In our demand planning system, we are using 9AMATNR and ZLOCNO(custom char for location) instaed of 9ALOCNO.

Issue:

1. Whne i create consumption group with these characterstics (9AMATNR. ZLOCNO, ZCHANNEL), it gives a warning message " ""9AMATNR"" and ""9ALOCNO" are recommended as standard DP characteristics. Check your entries ".

Now can i use any custom char apart from statndard chars?

If i ignore the warning and use custom char then will consumption work as per standard behaviour?

Can someone guide me....

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Jagadeesh.

Points will be rewarded for any help.

It is just a warning.. We are using a similar setup in our production system. When you release the demand from DP to SNP, make sure that map the Location, Product to your right characteristics in th DP (Simlarly the reverse too.)
